Damn this Ranchería Cellars got me stepping out from my usual! I'm tough on Merlots, but this one from Silverlake Wine's Blue Monday tasting last night was so good I had to purchase. Hard to find a palate so savory yet so bright. Deep dark fruits + cedar + light herby notes. Definitely going to be a summer BBQ go-to.
Approximately $17 (Sorry I was already drunk by the time I bought this and was one hundred percent not paying attention but swear it's under $20)

I write and drink wine.
I have no qualifications to write about drinking wine,
aside from the fact that
I do it all the time.

—Leandra Medine, founder of Man Repeller
“For ‘beginners,’ [Wine. All the Time. is] a fun start to the insanely beautiful and rewarding world of natural wine. For ‘mediums’ (like me) it's a great refresher and enlightener. For ‘experts’ it will remind you about what wine should be: freaking fun times! No boring bourgeois sleeper chapters … super funny and inspiring and very important to the impending food and wine revolution!”

“Well written, engaging, and crazy funny.”
